Our prediction: Man Utd v Middlesbrough
Old Trafford no longer has the aura it used to and Wilder’s side will arrive with the belief that they can pull off an upset but though they’ve not been fully convincing, United did seem to have turned a corner ahead of the international break.
Boro are certainly not to be underestimated and have become a difficult side to beat over the past few months but Friday’s game may just be a step too far for them.
Rangnick is likely to name a full-strength side that, fully rested and ready to go, should be too much for Championship opposition
Our prediction: Man Utd 3-1 Middlesbrough (11/1 at bet365)
